Stream cross-sectional areas (A) are required for a number of tasks in water resources engineering including flood forecasting and reservoir designing. Unless electronic sounding devices are available to obtain continuou profiles of the channel bottom, the engineer must rely on discrete depth measurements to compute for the Area. A Problem 2: example of a typical stream cross section is shown in the figure below. The data points represent locations where a boa was anchored and depth readings were taken.

Question 14 Which usually has higher froude number? O deep channel with high velocity deep channel with low velocity shallow channel with high velocity shallow channel with low velocity
A hydrographic survey was conducted on a reservoir to determine its capacity by contour method. The depth of water at sounding point P1 was 10.50m and its elevation at the bottom was computed to be 210.30m. A sounding point P2 at a distance of 35.45m from P1 was observed to have a depth of 3.25m and its elevation at the bottom was determined to be 217.55m. If a subaqueous contour is to be drawn between P1 and P2 with a contour interval 0.50m, how many contours that can be drawn? Select the correct response: 9 15 10 17
